The
University of Jammu, an ISO 9001-2000 certified and A-Grade
accredited University by National Assessment & Accreditation Council
of India (NAAC) came into existence in 1969 following the
bifurcation of the erstwhile University of Jammu and Kashmir.
Cradled in the lap of mountains at the foothills of the auspicious
Trikuta, besides the river Tawi at an altitude of 1030 ft. is the
famed University of Jammu, where imparting education is not just a
duty, but a commitment towards the advancement of the society. A
University with a vision to be a name to reckon within the business,
and a mission of production and distribution of knowledge, has been
the saga from the time of its inception.
University of Jammu started a two year full time Master's Degree
Programme in Tourism Management in the year 2001-2002. The programme
was started as a part of the Department of Management Studies.
Within four years of its existence, the programme was able to
establish its own credentials among the academia and the industry.
Looking into the success of the programme, University of Jammu
established School of Hospitality & Tourism Management on 27th July
2005, with an objective to develop tourism professionals and promote
research. In year 2009, keeping in view the UGC requirements the
degree has been renamed as Masters in Business Administrative
(Hospitality & Tourism).
